Ind vs Eng: Fans want the side to get Ishan Kishan in the playing XI in place of Iyer.
Lucknow: India’s middle-order had not been tested up until now and against England on Sunday it was the ideal opportunity for someone like Shreyas Iyer to get among the runs and prove his worth in the ODI World Cup 2023 squad. Instead, he failed with the bat against in Lucknow. Iyer perished for four off 16 balls. He was looking to break free by going aerial, unfortunately, the ball did not come out of the middle of the bat and he was holed out in the deep. Now, fans want the side to get Ishan Kishan in the playing XI in place of Iyer. Here are the reactions.

Ishan Kishan will surely play in the Semi Final & Final if Shreyas or Shubman fail in the next game against Sri Lanka.

Meanwhile, England have done well to restrict India to 229 for nine in 50n overs. David Willey with three wickets was the best bowler for England. England need 230 to win and under the lights in Lucknow, it will not be easy.
